Here are our top things to do this weekend and beyond, including Taylor Swift album-release parties, Gator Mike's new fall festival and other Halloween events. Plus a look at what's ahead in October. This new, family-friendly event celebrates Halloween all month long with 12 playful, Florida-themed skeleton scenes (vote for your favorite); a pumpkin-painting patch; food and craft vendors; circus performers; a trunk-or-treat station; field games; deejayed music for kids; a monster truck; and more.
